This research focuses on the development of lightweight cementitious composite (LCC) with
targeted densities, 800 kg/m 3 and 1000 kg/m 3 by incorporating perlite microspheres. The …

This research aims at developing the ultra-lightweight cement composites (ULCC) with high
flexural strength, good thermal insulation, and great water resistance by incorporating the …

In this paper, the influence of calcined perlite on the elevated temperature behaviour of
alkali activated slag (AAS) mortars is researched. The diversity parameters of mortars are …

Raw perlite is a volcanic alumino-silicate and is used as aggregate in the construction
industry. The high silica and alumina contained in the raw perlite allows the production of …

The thermal conductivity of a material is a measure of its capacity to conduct heat and is a
major factor influencing heat transfer in buildings. For better thermal insulation, construction …

Lightweight concrete has been an interest due to its advantages compared to normal
concrete. Lightweight concrete can be produced by the use of lightweight aggregates. In this …

Concrete is a widely known construction material that has been engineered to obtain certain
desirable mechanical and durability properties. This research aims at studying the …

The present study aims at experimentally investigating the applicability of Ternary Blended
Concrete (TBC) with Perlite Powder (PP) and Silica Fume (SF) as a partial replacement …

In this study, the impact of expanded perlite (EP) and expanded vermiculite (EV) on the
refractory properties of magnesium potassium phosphate cement (MKPC)-based fire …
